HAPPY HALLOWEEN to all you ghosts & goblins! This year’s Halloween party was a chilling success! Our consumers & staff showed off their amazing costumes in the parade, enjoyed a spooky lunch, and then shared their haunting skills during our favorite event, the annual talent show. Special thanks to PA State Rep. Eric Nelson for making a guest appearance as only he knows how, in a T-Rex costume! It was a day full of laughter, treats, and community spirit — a boo-tiful celebration for all!

This recognition is a very special honor to receive. We are so proud of Luke and all of his hard work at WCBA!

In recognition of National Disabilities Employment Awareness Month, UniqueSource Products & Services celebrates Luke McDonald

Luke works at the County Blind Association Production Center and brings great energy to the team. He is always smiling, ready to work, and quick to share a story or a laugh.

In the mornings, Luke makes hooks (he once made 1,000 in half a day!) and in the afternoons, he shreds paper — sometimes on the big shredder, sometimes the small one. He also makes coat hangers and straps for trucks, which are his favorite. Luke doesn’t stop when the job’s done — he helps clean up, sweep the floor, and keeps things moving. He is fast, reliable, and knows how to fix a jam with a few button-presses and a good yank.
